Tenderly, peacefully slumbering together,
Foeman to foeman, and brother to brother;
Strewn DER their graves are the garlands of
white,
Waiting their bloom on the odorous night.
The moon in the heavens, sweet lamp of the
sky,
Did halo the earth with the glory on high,
And through the calm evening swift fed the
As the FOOTBALLS Of Time tread softly on flowers.
List Twas sound like a drums muf1ed roll

Or echoing chime to the midnight bells tolline,
Lo! from the sod rose a shadowy throng
Spectral and wierd in the moonlight along.
On aerial chargers their pale leaders pass,
Scarce bending the blades of the tremulous
The Gray of Virginia and the Blue ranks Of
Maine,
All marshaled are fighting their battles again.
Where the dark Chicamauga streams deadly
and drear,
The conflict of war but the sad pines can hear;
Where tonight men of Ni"ksburg are sleeping
in peace,
o, wildly DER head bursts the bomb-shell's re-
lease.
On Gettysburg field and on cold Malvern Hill,
Meath Shiloh's dark shades and by lonely
Gaines Mill,
The phantoms OF battle are fighting once more,

But, bark DER the fields sounds the clear
reveille,
While hushed silence falls on the sureing
ARRAY,
And the Angel of Peace hovers over the sod;
The Blue and the Gray pass under the rod.
AS a shadow doth fee from the glance OF the
light,
Let our anger dissolve in our knowledge OF
right.
Let Freedom and Justice and Heaven have
sway,
And the discords OF earth shall have melted

CALIFORNIA CORK.
Its Value as an Additional Product an
Its AdantahiIify.

The Rural Press has the following The
growth of cork oak in California is not a
matter OF experiment, its success was
demonstrated long ago. The distribution
of cork acorns by the Patent Office about
twenty-five years ago may not have accom-
plished much in other parts of the country,
but it gave us q start, and there are now
trees yielding cork and bearing acorns at a
number of different places in the State.
There are trees growing on Mr.. Richard
sons place al San Gabriel, Los Angeles
county. There were samples of cork and
acorns shown at the Sacramento Citrus
Fair by H. A. Messenger, of Calaveras
county. There are trees of similar age in
Sonoma, Santa Barbara and Tulare and
perhaps other counties.
The State University is growing seed
lings from California cork acorns, and will
be likely TO have the trees for distribution
next year. There is no doubt about the
adaptation of the tree to the State, as the
widely separated counties named above all
furnish proper conditions for its growth 1t
is of course a crop which one has to wait
some time to gather, and therefore needs
patience in the planter.
The st. Louis Globe-DemOcrdt gives the
following interesting items about cork All
the corkwood OF commerce comes from the
Spanish peninsula, where the trees abound,
not only in cultivated forests, but also grow
wild on the mountains The tree is like
an American oak, with leaves similar TO
the oak and acorns. 1t takes ten years for
the bark to become a proper thickness to
be manufactured into bottle shoppers, life
preservers and seine corks. When stripped
from the tree, it is boiled for two hours,
cured in the sun for week and pressed
into fiat pieces for baling and shipping.
The denuded trunk, like a hen robbed of
her eggs, does not sulk and quit the bust
ness, but throws ont fresh covering for a
fresh spoilation. One tree has been known
to yield half ton of corkwood One
pound of cork can be manufactured into
IA champagne corks. The baled cork
bark is sold to cork manufacturing centers.
The most extensive mandatory in Amer
lea is at Pittsburg. Besides the ordinary
demands for corkbark, good supply of
the buoyant material, after being burned
to make it still lighter than the original
bark, is shipped to Canada and New Eng
land, where il is made into seine corks.
The average annual importation of cork
wood into this country entirely at the port
of New York is 10000 bales a year. A
bale weighs 160 pounds, and is worth ON
this side of the water $50, making total
value of the yearly importation of 81 AGO.

THE HOUSEHOLD.

PREPARATION OF ADMINISTRATIVE
wash is one of the most valuable articles
in the world when properly applied. 1t
not only prevents the decay of wood, but
conduces greatly to the healthfulness of
all buildings, whether of wood or stone
Outbuildings and fences, when not painted,
should be supplied once or twice year
with a good coat of whitewash, which
should be prepared in the following way !:
Take a clean, water-tight barrel or other
suitable eask. and put into it half bushel
of lime. Stake it by pouring water over it
boiling hot, and in sufficient quantity to
cover it five inches deep, and stir it briskly
till thoroughly slaked. When the shaking
has been thoroughly effected dissolve in
water and add two pounds of sulphate of
zinc and one OF common salt; these will
cause the wash 10 harden and prevent its
cracking, which gives an unseemly APP
pearance TO the work. II desirable q beau
tiful cream color may be communicated to
the above wash by adding three pounds of
yellow ochre, or q good pear or lead color
by the addition of lamp, vine or ivory
black For fawn color, add four pounds of
lumber, Turkish or American (the latter is
the eheapest), one pound OF common
lamp-black. For common stone color, add
four pounds of raw lumber and two pounds
of lamp black. This wash may be applied
with common whitewash brush, and will
be found much superior, both in appear
ance aad durability, to the common white
wash.
FAMoUs RECIPE FOR CURING HAss.-The
following is the famous recipe used by
Mrs. Henry Clay for curing hams, several
hogshead of which were annually sent to
Boston, where. under the name of "A sb-
land HAMS" they commanded the highest
of prices, especially among the wealthy
Wings of that city : For every ten hams of
moderate size she took three and one-half
pounds of fine salt. one pound of saItpeter,
and TWO pounds of broEn sugar, aud after
mixing these thoroughly together, rubbed
the hams Herewith on either side They
were then packed in tight box and placed
in cool clubhouse for abont three weeks.
when the hams were taken oct and put in
picking fab or hogshead and covered
With brine siFosg enough TO swim an egg.

FALSE CHINeH BUGs.-This insect, which
is a small grayish-brow bug, feeding on
the foliage of the grape vine, has made its
appearance in several districts of the State.
When disturbed. the false chinch bug
quickly drops to the ground and hides be-
meath particles of earth. In fact, the sur
face earth sometimes becomes so filled
with them as to appear alarming to the
proprietor. To destroy them, this peculi-
arity may be made available by putting
some fine straw about the base of the vine,
into which they will seek hiding places.
The straw may be afterwards raked up
and burned. To otherwise stop their dam
age TO the foliage the vine may be sprayed
with solution of one pound of Paris green
to $50 or $50 gallons of water. This APP
piled to the vine at or before the time of
poisoning will not contaminate the fruit
If done later, the fruit, to avoid any danger,
may be removed and destroyed. Their
appearance in former years has never re-
suited in serious damage, as they have been
found only on few vines in spots, from
which they have spread but Titles. f.

ture recommended for fruit-tree pests, and
the scale will quickly disappear. This
kerosene mixture is remedy for all rose
parasites where in severe cases other rem
edies tail, and used judiciously will not in
jure even tender plants. 1t is made as fol-
lows, though this recipe will make large
amount, and should be proportiobately de-
creased: Kerosene oil, l gallon; milk fresh
or sour, pints; water, 6 pints; add pints
of milk and four pints of water to the oil
and when the mixture begins to thicken
by churning or beating, add the balance.
By churning from 10 to 45 minutes the
whole turns to a creamy, butter-like sub
stance, which may then be diluted in water
as much as is desired. 1t will sour or
curdle, but may be stirred up again. One
pint of the kerosene butter to six quarts of
water is the proportion used on badly
affected fruit trees. For roses pint in
about or 8 quarts would be the right pro-
portion. This kills every sort of parasite
so far as / have tried it, though its making
takes some trouble.
VARIETIES.
The best kinds of roses for the average
small garden are those which bloom con-
stantly and take the least care. The more
delicate varieties are very beautiful. but if
few can be grown it is more satisfactory to
have those few bloom constantly and pref
t;ly the year around. The Madame Bez-
anque of pretty, pale peach color and
perfect shape; the Hermosa, deep rose
color, always good bloomer; the old Gels
Multifora, loaded with blush buds; the
Safrano, rich salmon yellow, vigorous
grower and constant bloomer; the White
Daily, as its name implies, a daily bloom
er; and the sweet-scented, vigorous Jules
Margottin, with big deep crimson buds
these are all satisfactory. Besides
these there are great many which do well
with slight amount of care, and under
favorable circumstances bloom beautifully
and constantly. Of these / will mention
the Devoniensis, Niphetos and La Maraue
of the white, the Bon Silene, Catharine
Mermet, La France and Arch Duke Charles
of the pink shades, the Jacqueminot, the
Empress of India and the Andre Schwartz
in red, the Solfaterre, William Allen Rich
ardson, Chromatella. Isabella Sprunt and
Perle des Jardin in the yellow tints.
The number of fine roses amounts to
thousands, so that in small article it
would be impossible even to mention them.
Those have named are, however, good,
and will in small garden make fine
showing with quite variety. Hundreds
of varieties may be found in the lists pub
llshed by rose-growers. | am therefore not
attempting to take up the subject of variety
in full.
By using the simple precautions | have
named, by keeping the bushes we'll dug
around and giving them plenty of sun, by
pruning severely and judiciously and
watching and studying the causes of sick
ness in individual plants, there is no rea-
son why those who love roses should not
grow them to as great perfection in their
own gardens as do the professional florists.

FERTILIzE TO CURE PEACH YELLows-
contributor claims that the want of fer
tility is the principal cause of yellows in
peaches arguing that when the country
was new good crops were readily secured,
but gradually, as the fertility decreased, the
crops diminished and disappeared. Heap
piled, as a remedy, potash, phosphoric acid,
salet kainet, at the rate of five or ten
pounds per tree. Bone dust was used TO
get the phosphoric acid. The best form in
which we can apply potash to the soil is in
the shape of wood ashes. If they cannot
be obtained conveniently, use kainet. He
says: My trees have lived to a greater age
than those around me- and have secured
good crops of fruit when others failed
which l ascribe to fertilizers used. | had
about 100 trees that were getting very yell
low. ! cleared off the ground clean, and to
all except two trees | applied kainet, and
later on, about 700 pounds of fertilizer to
the acre. In month ! could notice a
change in the trees, and | secured a full
crop of fruit, the credit of which was given
to the phosphoric acid and potash. / am
confident that to prune well, cultivate well
and manure well will always bring good
crops of fruit"

A New KIND OF FENoE-A new in
dustry is springing up in Kern county and
bids fair to be of value and Importance to
farmers. Our readers viii remember an
article in these columns some time ago on
the growth of bamboo for fencing. Acting
on that idea, c. A. Maui has planted out
200 roots of this plant and expects to raise
his own fencing. The growth of this va
riety of bamboo reaches highth of from
thirty to forty feet each year. is very
straight and when dry is very hard and
strong. The stalks will be cut into suitable
lengths for pickets, and woven with wire
into neat, strong, durable rabbit-proof
and stock proof fence. Parties who have
been raising it for some time assert that an
acre, well set TO roots, will produce pickets
enough each year to make six miles of
fence. Allowing one-half for enthusiasm
and there is still something in it. The
roots can be obtained from Fresno county
at So per hundred. Bamboo is a perennial
plant and a few roots will soon spread over
quite an area.-Bakersfeid Echo.

a BLOOD NAVEL ORANGE.-We were
handed an orange this week by A. Wilkins,
grown on the place of d, Houser, which is
something new under the sun. The tree
upon which this orange grew was planted
as Washington Navel. pure and simple.
The fruit has the peculiar mark of the
Navel, but upon being cut it represents in
unmistakable colering the Malta Blood.
What will be an appropriate name for this
hybrid orange? is the question now before
this people. The fruit is as fine as any we
have ever sampled Gladstone Exponent.
